freebsd with flexible iflib nic queues

Currently, thread_create(), when called in userspace, creates a joinable (i.e. not detached thread). This is the pthread default. Unfortunately, this does not reproduce kthreads behavior (kthreads are always detached). In addition, this contradicts the original Solaris code which creates userspace threads in detached mode. These joinable threads are never joined, which leads to a leakage of pthread thread objects ("zombie threads"). This in turn results in excessive ressource consumption, and possible ressource exhaustion in extreme cases (e.g. long ztest runs). This patch fixes the issue by creating userspace threads in detached mode. The only exception is ztest worker threads which are meant to be joinable.

Native ZFS for Linux! ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris. It has been successfully ported to FreeBSD and now there is a functional Linux ZFS kernel port too. The port currently includes a fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, and ZVOL with a ZFS Posix Layer (ZPL) on the way!
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
To copy the kernel code inside your kernel source tree for builtin compilation:
$ ./configure --enable-linux-builtin --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-...
$ ./copy-builtin /usr/src/linux-...
Full documentation for building, configuring, and using ZFS can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
